Region : Highlands District : Caithness Town or village : Lybster Grid Reference : ND 295 384 Period : 2nd millennium BC Mid Clyth (Hill o' Many Stanes) STONE ROWS

More than 22 rows of slow stones arranged in a slightly fan-shaped pattern, on the south slope of a small hill. Now there are about 200 stones, but there could originally have been 600. The largest stone is 0.9m in height. The function of the stones is unknown: one theory explains the setting as a complex lunar observatory. In care of Historic Scotland
